Landing on runway 04 at KHOU William P Hobby Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 89.87 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KHOU William P Hobby Airport, but with some notable areas for improvement. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 44.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,276 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 04, which has a length of 7,600 feet.

The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 150 knots. This may indicate a slight overcorrection by the pilot during the approach. The touchdown distance of 976 feet was within acceptable limits, but the touchdown speed of 148 knots was a little fast. This could have contributed to the hard touchdown rate of -514 feet per minute (fpm), which is considered very hard.

Another area of concern was the runway touchdown position, which was misaligned by 44 feet from the centreline. This could have been due to a combination of factors, including wind and pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 88°F and a wind of 5 knots at 110°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots.

The total landing distance of 4,809 feet was 63% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. However, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 54 feet from the centreline, which could indicate a loss of control during the rollout phase. Overall, while the landing was successful, there are several areas that require attention to improve the safety and efficiency of future landings.
